The Life and Times of Mr. Fred Rogers</a> One of the most influential people ever to grace television, Mr. Rogers was a neighbor to millions of children across the US. His legacy has left a long lasting impression on the fabric of society. With today's children being force fed Hanna Montana, and Joey 101, wouldn't it be nice if we could go to the kingdom of make believe, just one more time? tag:metafilter.com,2009:site.79055Wed, 11 Feb 2009 06:09:23 -0800Heliochrome85Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood not included in weekday program services this fallhttp://www.metafilter.com/73653/Mr%2DRogers%2DNeighborhood%2Dnot%2Dincluded%2Din%2Dweekday%2Dprogram%2Dservices%2Dthis%2Dfall
<a href="http://savemisterrogers.com">After 40 years of national broadcasts, Mister Rogers' Neighborhood will be removed from PBS' weekday program service this fall.</a> The current situation is that PBS beams the show to member stations as part of its children's programming block Monday through Friday. Most (63%) stations air it. Starting in the fall, PBS stations won't receive the show daily but rather one episode per week will be sent. This summer, PBS stations that still want to play the the show during the week will have an opportunity to receive a season's worth of episodes to stockpile. But receiving and scheduling those episodes requires effort. As such, contacting one's local PBS station requesting for the summer stockpile is one step. <a href="http://www.pbs.org/stationfinder/index.html">Here's a link to the station finder</a>. <a href="http://www.pbs.org/aboutsite/aboutsite_emailform.html">One can also contact national PBS</a>. <a href="http://savemisterrogers.com/neighbors/">Mrs. Rogers herself is encouraging people to do this</a>.

To be honest, his was never my personal favorite PBS kid's show growing up (I preferred off-brand shows like "Zoom" and "3-2-1 Contact"). But my appreciation for him when I was an adult was pretty high.
